Hi Product Hunt! I built Draft & Check after watching too many "deliverable" email addresses bounce. Most verifiers either lock you into subscriptions or hand back an optimistic "deliverable" that still bounces. Draft & Check does the real thing: it connects to the mail server for a live SMTP mailbox check (with catch-all detection), and when it genuinely cannot confirm a mailbox, it returns "unknown" instead of faking a "deliverable." Every address gets a verdict (deliverable, risky, undeliverable, unknown) and a 0 to 100 score. Why you might like it: Pay-as-you-go credits that never expire, no subscription Roughly 3 to 4x cheaper per verification than ZeroBounce 100 free credits to start, no card A clean REST API (single and batch), also on RapidAPI EU-hosted, GDPR-conscious, submitted addresses are not stored You can check one email free right on the homepage, no signup. I would love feedback, especially from anyone doing cold outreach or running signup flows. What would make you switch verifiers?
